Step 1
1. Wash and dry the pork. Remove the tough ends from the asparagus. Heat oil in a skillet. The classic pork with asparagus recipe calls for sesame oil. If you don't have it, you can use another oil. Add pork and asparagus to the skillet and cook until browned. Be sure to season with salt and pepper to taste.
